Sisters card

Hello, This card represents my nieces. I do not have a sister. I have 3 brothers though if that counts. There is a song that says " Sisters! Sisters! Nothing better get between me and my sister." It was in a Bing Crosby movie.

I colored the skin and hair with copics. Skin-E000, E00, E01, E02, hair- Y17, Y15, Y13, YR23. the eyes are drawn on with black Gelly Roll Pen. The wands are done with Gold Metallic and Blue Metallic Gelly Roll pens.

The word sisters was cut out using Cricut cartridge Hertiage row4 button 3 word and word shift keys at .75".

The embossing was done using Cuttlebug paisley Embossing folder. i then distressed the design by sanding it so the design would show up more. The striped and blue print paper is by DCWV stack 7. The blue for embossing is by Bazzill and the brown and light, medium,dark blue are by Recollections. the white is by Georgia Pacific that I printed the images onto.

"Hello Everyone Welcome!"

I love to scrap and make cards. I also paint in oil, pastel, and watercolor. Art in some form has always been a part of my life since I was coloring in a coloring book and playing with play dough. Thanks to Mom we always had some kind of dough to play with, mostly homemade. My 3 brothers and I loved it! In the 5th grade I had a teacher who liked art and opened up crafts to me. Then at an action an oil painting kit was in a box of things my Dad wanted. Oh how I loved it! Talking about being happy! My first oil painting in the 8th grade with Mrs. Hughes was of a flamingo. Idid a Painted Bunting-bird in the 9th grade. My folks got a divorce then and I stopped drawing and painting. Divorces do hurt kids! I started babysitting when 16 years old and started drawing and doing crafts with the children I kept. it brought me great joy. I met a wonderful man in 1995 and married him in 1996. He encouraged me to take painting lessons. Thanks Lloyd for a wonderful gift. In 1999 my husband died. I still miss him. I started scrapbooking and card making in 2003. I have learned a lot but know there is much, much more out there to learn. every day I learn something new. Thanks to all who have taught me along the way wether you know it or not. Edwina Brown
